Smithfield – Hey Whiskey lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can tell he's been with you on nights like this
And when you come on strong, he just can't resist
You don't know all the hell you've put me through
And he can't let me go, when he's holding you

[Chorus]
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me?
Why's he only call me up when he throws you down?
Wanting me more with every round
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning?
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
Hey whiskey

[Verse 2]
I'm only on his mind when you go to his head
And he starts pouring out, all the words he never said
How can either one of us start moving on
When every night he spends with you reminds him that I'm gone

[Chorus]
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me?
Why's he only call me up when he throws you down?
Wanting me more with every round
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning?
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
Hey whiskey

[Interlude]
Why am I the one that ends up feeling empty

[Chorus]
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me?
Why's he only call me up when he throws you down?
Wanting me more with every round
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning?
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
Hey whiskey
Oh whiskey
